Gigabyte Launches AERO X16 Professional Laptop With AMD Ryzen AI 9 Processors And NVIDIA RTX Graphics For Powerful On Device Artificial Intelligence Workflows In An Ultra Thin Chassis
Gigabyte, has recently launched the AERO X16 laptop for professional creators. This ultra thin device is built to be a platform for demanding tasks and resource intensive computations and is verified as Microsoft Copilot Plus certified. Gigabyte has combined a compact, travel friendly, yet power packed form factor that allows it to leverage internal components for high performance on device artificial intelligence.
The system utilizes either up to an AMD Ryzen AI 9 465 processor along with up to an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 mobile GPU (with a TGP of 85W and 12 GB of VRAM). The 12GB of VRAM on the laptop helps speed up real time rendering while using applications with DLSS 4.5 in some programs and enables large language models to run on the device without external cloud servers. Beyond the features that come native with the operating system (like Cocreator and Live Captions), Gigabyte is offering their GiMATE AI Agent, providing on demand hardware and software control. This includes GiMATE Creator (for streamlined local generative image workflow) and GiMATE Coder (a function that integrates with Visual Studio Code for on demand, text to code functionality).
This laptop has a measured thickness of just 16.75mm, making it compact, yet weighs a relatively light 1.9 kg. This chassis contains the WINDFORCE Infinity cooling system (100W TGP) that utilizes a 3D VortX channel system and 4 copper heatpipes and 2 micro fans. The system allows for quiet (0dB) operation during basic use, but has dedicated cooling zones for both keys and the bottom touchpad when under heavy AI load, so users don't experience burning. The 16" 16:10 aspect ratio screen provides a 2560 x 1600 resolution and a 165 Hz refresh rate, and covers 100% of the sRGB color space while being Pantone color verified. The display itself is built into a chassis with a 92% screen to body ratio, while the TV Rheinland certified eye comfort display reduces eye strain and the Dolby Atmos certified speaker system is built in for a rich audio experience.
The internal battery promises up to 14 hours of continued use and has support for fast charging. It also features the "Golden Curve" keyboard which is fully customizable with dynamic RGB lighting and the outside casing is available in both Lunar White and Space Gray and features a sandblasted anodized exterior with a custom nameplate on the outside lid. Final pricing and available configurations are determined by region and should be available on the official Gigabyte retail websites.
